Description
The bank barn located about 50 metres east of Chipley Manor is a Grade II listed structure built into the hillside, with a shippon underneath. It was constructed in 1827, as indicated by a datestone. The barn is made of stone rubble with squared stone dressings and features a low-pitched slated roof with clay ridge-tiles, hipped at both ends.
The east front has four wide segmental-arched openings on the ground storey that provide access to the shippon. Above these, there are two doorways leading to the barn, aligned with the outer piers of the openings below. Just below the eaves, there is a limestone tablet inscribed with: "This barn was built at the expense of Mr W French in the year of 1827. H Bickley, mason. J Candish, carpenter."
On the west front, where the barn floor is at ground level, there are two wide segmental-arched openings. The left opening has been slightly cut away at the base, while the right opening is flanked by two windows filled with concrete block. Adjacent to the right opening is the remnant of a horse-engine house, with the curved right wall still intact, although the left wall has been replaced with a concrete block pier. The roof of this section has been replaced with a corrugated asbestos lean-to. Additionally, on the left side of the frontage, there is a single-storey structure made of stone rubble with a lean-to roof of corrugated iron. The barn features a scissor-braced roof.
